Album Review
MC Dizzy Jackson
Reviewed 2013-11-20
The Strange Tones are based in Portland, OR and play a blues-based rock vibe w/ elements of rockabilly, funk, surf w/ standard instrumentation of gtr, bass, drums, keys, harmonica. Both female and male lead vcls. The album’s theme is ‘Crime-A-Billy’ w/ some great moments. No FCC’s.

*My Favorites*: 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 11.

1. (3:57) Mid. Barroom bluesy w/ slight mean vibe.
2. *(3:05) Mid. Rockin’ w/ gtr solo, solid beat.
3. *(3:56) Mid. Mellow gait, relaxed blues.
4. *(3:01) Mid. Drivin’ beat, kinda retro vibe.
5. (4:40) Slow / Mid. Dark hypnotic mourner.
6. *(2:44) Mid. Swingin’ blues w/ keys.
7. (3:41) Mid. INSTRUMENTAL. Mellow yet mean.
8. (3:40) Mid. Solid steady beat, kinda mean.
9. *(4:20) Mid. Funky w/ playful lyrics, gtr solo.
10. (4:20) Slow / Mid. Mellow late-night vibe.
11. *(2:56) Mid. INSTRUMENTAL. Great surf noir.
12. (3:57) Mid. Drivin’ rockin’ blues.
13. (4:27) Mid. INSTRUMENTAL. Dark rockin’ surf.
